U P P S , SUBSCRIPTION - - - - - 5 0 Cts P E R A N N U M ATHLETIC NOTES The Seniors, digging, slipping, stud clawing in a sea °f mud, succeeded in slapping their way to a 13 to 0 victory over the Freshies. • ‘Goose Egg, ’ ’ pride and dash of the Green Capped luds, found himself com pletely tied, as he could not get loose for any of his dashing runs. “ Shi,eh” Wall proved himself a contender for a berth on the All-Star team last Sunday, as he ran and slipped his way through the Freshies. for two touch downs. ‘ ‘Galloping’ ’ Frenier also distinguished him self, and placed himself among the leading candidates for the center berth. ‘ ‘ W ild’ ’ Bill Cadotte and Young Jack Thompson were Freshie luminaries. In fact, “ Wild” Bill Cadotte proved himself a regular steam roller as he ploughed through,: the Senior line for short gains, time and again. However, a t critical; times the Senior line always stiffened and held the Freshies for downs. In spite of the one-sided game the Freshies fought from the start to finish. Our football game at Monmouth on Armistice Day resulted iu a 25 to 0 score against us:—but it is not to our discredit by any means. In the first place our lads weregreatly outweighed man for man, and despite the Normal School’s natural advantage it cannot be stated, truthfully, that Chem aw agaveupinits unusual up-hill fight unfil the end of,the game. The “ breaks’ ’ alt seemed to be for Monmouth. Oh, well, no matter-— our boys made many friends by their clean and sports manlike playing in the face of the inevitable. Joe Peratrovich is declared, to have been the star of the team on this occasion. Peter McClusky was quite badly hurt, but is now. improving in a satisfactory way. PORTLAND V E SPE R SERICE Nine girls of the Chemawa Y. W. C- A. went to Portland on; Sunday afternoon tp assist in the Yesper. Service of the Portland Y- W-G. A,, at which Super intendent Lapps gave the main address. The Vesper service marked the beginning of the world’s week of fellowship and prayer which is observed, by the “ Y ” Association throughout the world. Vina Smith, pres ident of our campus Y. W. C. A ., presided at the meeting which was opened by the entire assembly Singing America, accompanied by Spy na Howard at the piano. The devotional service Was led by Clèo Plas- teur, followed by a solo, “Grateful, O Ford, Am I ” sung by Elvira Silas. Vina then, introduced Supt- Eipps who spoke of thk so-called “ Indian Problem,” first in its national sig nificance, and then ip its relation to local communi ties, particularly in Oregon. He expressed his ap preciation of the splendid co-operation and help which the national and local Y. W. C. A.s are giving to the government in its program of education, as well as to groups of individual Indian girls throughout the country . Following this talk, at group of six Che- mawa girls sang a three-part chorus, ‘ 'Spirit of Eight.” Vina then asked all former Chemawa students who were in the audience to come to the platform and sing with the girls the Y. W. C. A. hymn, “ Follow the Gleam.” About forty girls respondedto this request and sang with much feeling the beautiful ceremonial hymn. The, school song provided a fitting clpse. to the program. About two hundred and fifty people attended the afternoon service and-tea was served- to this group by several of the Chemawa girls who are living, in P ort land. For those who went down from Chem awaade- li cious supper was provided, by the Religious Work.
